Chapter 695: Poseixi, Packed and Taken Away

"Big sister, do you intend to let Rongrong and Xiao Wu succeed you as High Priest?"

Qin Jian couldn't help but interject: "After all, they come from the Dalu; will this cause a backlash from the Spirit Masters of Sea God Island? Can they accept it?"

Poseixi turned her head to look at him and nodded: "There will certainly be many who are unconvinced, that is beyond doubt, but their strength is sufficient. As long as they find a way to gain recognition, this matter is not difficult if one is willing to spend the time."

Qin Jian pondered for a moment: "But they won't stay on Sea God Island forever."

"Who says the High Priest must stay on Sea God Island forever?"

Poseixi shook her head and smiled: "As long as everything on Sea God Island is normal, they can leave at any time."

"Rongrong, Xiao Wu, what do you think?" Qin Jian looked at Ning Rongrong and the other.

They exchanged a glance, their expressions looking slightly strange.

"What's wrong?" Poseixi asked.

Xiao Wu stuck out her tongue: "We can't refuse this at all, because that was something we were going to do anyway."

"Something you were going to do anyway?"

Qin Jian and Poseixi were stunned, then realized it together: "Is it the Eighth Trial?"

Ning Rongrong nodded: "Yes, the content of our Eighth Trial is to succeed to the position of High Priest, gain the recognition of Sea God Island, and also, pull up the Sea God Trident."

"So that is how it is," Poseixi smiled faintly: "It seems Lord Sea God also intends for you to replace me."

Ning Rongrong looked at the smile on her face and felt it was somehow inappropriate.

"High Priest gran... big sister, what do you want to do after stepping down from the position of High Priest?" She couldn't help but ask.

Poseixi turned to look at Qin Jian, the light in her eyes gradually concentrating: "I want to see this world again, with him."

"You are leaving Sea God Island?!"

Ning Rongrong suddenly realized: "So you said it was passing on the position, but you actually intended to leave us behind and abduct Brother Jian all by yourself?!"

Xiao Wu's rabbit ears stood straight up: "So that's it! High Priest grandma is so devious!"

Poseixi laughed: "Staying on Sea God Island to participate in the Assessment is something you must do anyway, how can you say I am devious?"

"So, you are going on a honeymoon with Brother Jian, aren't you?"

Ning Rongrong was almost turning into a lemon: "Wow, I thought I had done my best by letting you spend a good night together, but it turns out you were planning to pack him up and take him away!"

"Absolutely not, Brother is ours!"

Xiao Wu hugged Qin Jian's arm without a word.

"Brother Jian, are you going with her?"

Ning Rongrong pouted as she looked over.

Qin Jian broke into a sweat: "This..."

He hadn't expected Poseixi to have this idea; the situation instantly turned into a choice between her and Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu, which was enough to make one's hair fall out just thinking about it.

"Big sister, you want to travel around?"

Qin Jian looked at Poseixi.

"Yes," she touched her cheek: "I want to take advantage of the time I have left to take a good look at this world, with you."

"Is that okay?" Poseixi looked over with hope.

But on the other side, Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu were also staring at him intently.

"It won't be too long, a few months perhaps," sensing Qin Jian's hesitation, Poseixi added: "With our speed, it won't delay too much time. Even if we linger somewhere, you can fly back to see them at any time."

"Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, lend him to me for a while longer, just a little while, okay?" She turned to the two of them and said.

Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu looked at each other, then at Qin Jian, wanting to agree but feeling reluctant.

"Actually, you don't have to treat me as a love rival or an opponent..."

Seeing their hesitation, Poseixi smiled faintly and stepped forward to pat Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu on the head: "I won't fight you for him, and I won't divide his affection in the future. I..."

She looked back and smiled, the sunlight falling on her face, making her look crystal clear: "I am destined to be nothing more than a passerby in his life's journey."

Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu were both stunned.

Even though Poseixi's smile was very gentle, seeing her expression made them involuntarily feel a sense of pity.

She was like an elderly person of eighty or ninety, lingering on the final beauty.

"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Wu couldn't help but ask.

But Ning Rongrong tugged at her sleeve, stepped forward, and smiled: "Since High Priest big sister wants to go see the world with Brother Jian, then go. We will wait for you to return on Sea God Island."

Poseixi revealed a comforted smile: "Thank you."

Qin Jian frowned as he watched her back, feeling he couldn't fully grasp her thoughts.

Even if she couldn't become a god and her time was running out, she shouldn't be so certain of her own death, right? After all, he had already revealed the possibility of immortality.

Then, what else was she hiding in the depths of her heart?

Could it be related to the Sea God again?

Qin Jian felt uneasy.

"Brother Jian, go with High Priest big sister, don't worry about us," Ning Rongrong walked over, hugged Qin Jian lightly, and whispered in his ear: "Brother Jian, she seems to have thoughts of giving up her life. Try to probe her, don't let her end her life in sorrow again."

Qin Jian nodded lightly: "Mm, you two take care, don't be too hasty, I will be back soon."

After he let go of Ning Rongrong, he hugged Xiao Wu, and only then did he walk to Poseixi's side to prepare for their upcoming long journey.

Not long after, all the high-ranking officials of Sea God Island were summoned by Poseixi to the Sea God Hall, and under their varied expressions, Poseixi announced the decision for Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu to jointly succeed to the position of High Priest.

The process was naturally not that smooth, especially for the Seven Sea Sacred Pillar Guardians; how could they be willing to accept them being dropped onto their heads?

Poseixi did not try to persuade them with earnest words, only saying simply: "Go, have a fight. All seven of you come at once; if you lose, you are not allowed to raise any objections."

These words naturally made the seven Title Douluo feel slighted, but when Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu released their martial souls, they were dumbfounded.

After completing the Seventh Trial, Ning Rongrong was level 97, and Xiao Wu was level 95.

What was the concept of a level 97 Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda support? No one had ever seen it before.

And the seven Title Douluo who witnessed it for the first time were kicked half to death by Xiao Wu's long legs; from then on, no one dared to raise any objections to them succeeding as High Priest.

"Lord Sea God truly favors those two..."

Poseixi looked at Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong, turned her head, and said softly to Qin Jian, "The Sea God Nine Trials should theoretically be much more difficult than my Top Eight Trials, but they have mixed in three Assessments related to you and me, and in the remaining Assessments, the fourth, fifth, and sixth were completed in a single day because of you..."

"In less than two years, they have completed seven Assessments and reached the heights of level 95 and level 97; this Speed is likely unprecedented and will never be surpassed..."

Qin Jian turned his head to look at her profile and asked calmly, "Then tell me, does the Sea God have any other ideas?"
